Waltzing the Wilarra

3 July 2025 – 22 Oct 2025

Playwright
David Milroy
Director
Brittanie Shipway
Against a backdrop of curfews and the fear of arrest, white and black manage to form their own club where they can forget their worries and experience rare happy times, and with a little luck romance. Forty years on, as the club faces demolition, our characters meet once again to stage a musical reunion and protest in an attempt to save their old stomping ground. Dark secrets and ghosts that have lingered for more than half a century are revealed, and we discover that reconciliation is more than saying sorry.
